LD27 — 10 Seconds

10 seconds from zombie life by aglushakov 2013-08-27T01:55:00

Really liked this game! It’s short, sweet and simple. No over-complicated controls and a workable premise. Being able to access it from the web is always a bonus. It also had a nice balance of mindless blasting and very easy to get unlockables. I mean, I killed one zombie my first go and got $100, a grenade and a bigger gun. Sweet! ^^ The music was a little repetitive but, seeing as this was a compo as well as a “kill-wave-after-wave” rather than a “level-up-and-unlock”, it served its purpose well enough.
The only, tiny, nit-pick I had was the lag I experienced. My internet is rather laggy so that could be a factor but, still, I found it hard to shoot as the time between my click and the shot was fairly long. Again, might just be my web connection. Experienced no bugs besides that. Otherwise, this was gold and made me laugh as I’m a sucker for just blowing stuff up for the fun of it!
Great entry! Hope to see more from you later.

OKAI by Rongefilet 2013-08-27T01:23:00

I really liked this piece overall! Being available on the web and chrome at that, so I could translate and play it easily was a big bonus! I thought the art and music was very nice and you guys did very well with the theme. I had no glitches on my end that I could see and it ran smoothly enough. My connections pretty bad so I blamed any lagging on that.

The only critique I have is that, without levels or any real goal aside from getting the fruit and resting, I got bored rather easily. Played it for a good long while because it’s so beautiful but still, grew tired. As this is your first jam though, you guys did excellent in my book ^^

Hope to see more from y’all real soon!

THE WHiTE ROOM by CScribes 2013-08-27T21:00:00

Thanks so much for the feedback! I will go in and fix it right away guys! @ Zephyr It's used once you are inside the room. You have ten seconds in total (the menus are times and add up to ten in all) to "win" the game so to speak. *goes off to fix it*

THE WHiTE ROOM by CScribes 2013-08-28T16:30:00

Sorry everyone for the inconvience! I set up the file before school and forgot to make it public! Will fix as soon as possible.

THE WHiTE ROOM by CScribes 2013-08-28T20:32:00

Yes, I do feel like more choices would have been ideal and mentioned my pacing was way off for this one :'D I personally felt that adding anymore in would not have been good though as they'd have been... meaningless! *slapstick* Because almost half of the story was cut from it.

Glad it appealed to you visually and sound wise. Your criticism of the actual "game play" (the menus) per so many words is very valid. Happy you picked up on that little self-jab too lol. It's how I felt when the whole shabang was through and over with. Next time i'll try to do better with incorporating the theme and keeping my wordy-ness low now that I have the basic framework of Ren'Py down pack.

On a side note, the game file should now be public access ^^ As always, if you encounter any bugs or what have you, let me know and i'll get to it as soon as I can!

THE WHiTE ROOM by CScribes 2013-08-29T16:42:00

Hm, really? I'll check it out when I go home and re-upload if nessacary.

THE WHiTE ROOM by CScribes 2013-09-12T17:21:00

@Jr and Real Very truthful points. As I've said before, one thing I will improve on in my next attempt I'll add more branching choices. Going solo my first attempt was overwhelming. I'll be sure to get a proofreader next go around, add more choices and do better next go around. Thanks for attempting it and giving your honest feedback. I'll keep it in mind!

@Black Glad you liked and understood the overarching concept of the story!

Boxen! by davidwparker 2013-08-24T07:03:00

This is a fun little game. Reminds me of minesweeper haha!

LD31 — Entire Game on One Screen

DotHop by Teejay5 2014-12-25T07:42:00

A great game that needs polish as others have already said. One of my favorite entries still!

90 Second Portraits by SimonLarsen 2014-12-10T17:49:00

Loved it! The idea is fresh and the use of them theme clear and hilarious. Great job :)

Musing About by CtrlAltTea 2014-12-11T02:42:00

Great game. I agree that the full bar was confusing, and I wasn't so ure if what I was doing was helping the painting or not. Controls were smooth and the music was nice :)

One Does Not Simply Walk Into More Doors by Wertle 2014-12-22T21:18:00

One of my favorite games of this jam thus far :D Love everything about it but, the music was a little irritating after a while. Thanks for sharing!

Monster Buster by AsixJin 2014-12-09T22:13:00

Overall a good first game! The use of the theme and the graphics were nice. The music wasn't half bad as well. I did encounter a bug, I believe, which wouldn't allow me to move up and down.

TURN it UP by pkenney 2014-12-22T21:05:00

Fun and weird little game. I wasn't too sure how to... win? But, the instructions and general mood were excellent.

Summoning of the Santa by Slothmachine 2014-12-22T17:37:00

Amazing entry! The puzzles were fun, the graphics cool, and the execution pretty sweet. I also loved that I could play it on Chrome haha

BACKACHA by WhoaConstrictor 2014-12-23T20:57:00

Amazing entry! One of favorite games of the jam :D I found the controls to be a challenge though...

Moonlit Crawlers by Otrora Games 2014-12-09T22:04:00

Great game overall! It took me a second to get over to the water but, after I figured that out things went smoothly. Nice use of the theme and the music was very nice.

Space Cube by lxd1 2014-12-22T17:43:00

Hard little number. The graphics and sound was very nice but, I agree the shadow like effect underneath the bullets and vehicle made it hard for me to figure out where to shoot.

Are we not suppose to be able to move? Got to wave 7 :) Hope to see more from you soon!

Snow Need To Rush by SnoutUp 2014-12-09T01:13:00

Great game as always :) you did a nice job with the theme. I was a little confused at first but, figured it out pretty quickly!

Poo Dee Pie by Blue Thumbs Gaming 2014-12-09T22:25:00

Nice game :D It's nasty and dirty and hilariously funny!

Office Gaming Inception by AMS 2014-12-09T22:22:00

Great game with a lot of humor :D Found the controls a little difficult at first but still awesome overall.

Sweet Dreams Bear by EvanEGibbs 2014-12-09T22:32:00

Love, love, love this little game :) More like a storybook with a sweet ending.

Coded Universe by peterthehe 2014-12-22T21:36:00

I wasn't really sure what I was doing :( More instruction would be helpful! Otherwise, really liked the music and graphics!

Case #31 by Pestel Crew 2014-12-23T20:58:00

Overall fantastic game :D

LD32 — An Unconventional Weapon

RELIC by CptDustmite 2015-04-26T04:01:00

I couldn't really see the theme too well, but loved loved the humor, mood, audio, and general aesthetic. The ability to restart quickly was a nice touch. And, if you rid out the rock glitch, it isn't too bad. Great work :)

Lucid by rxi 2015-04-26T04:44:00

Simply amazing! I'm speechless that one person created this in two days time ")

Twizards by Nonameghost 2015-04-26T04:56:00

A solid demo that needs more work. I think it would function best as a multiplayer instead :)

Beacons by Xanjos 2015-05-04T20:31:00

Like others have already stated, it was a little hard to grasp what I was suppose to be doing. Otherwise, I like the general premise and especially the use of the theme!

What Have We Created?! by Ranmara 2015-04-26T05:19:00

Loved it! Such a cute face for an evil abomination xD!

Where's Manno by local minimum 2015-04-26T04:07:00

Manno was difficult for me to find as well. I tried to use the guide but, the trippy graphics combined with a little girl whispering at 11AM was too terrifying for me to focus!! I mean this all in a good way of course :) The chicken was a odd choice though... but, I do think it was a great use of the theme nonetheless. Audio was spot on, but some instruction in the beginning would have been nice.

Hue Jedde by Serena 2015-04-26T04:34:00

Honestly my favorite game of the jam!!

Square Sprint by jackrugile 2015-04-26T05:03:00

Amazing entry!! Could easily see this on the App store :)

KNIGHT by CScribes 2015-05-04T20:42:00

Thanks for all the feedback so far! I agree the mechanics need polish but, alas, I can't fix it haha

Savior by CarlsonAndPeeters 2015-04-26T05:15:00

Awesome game! Funny, simple, and good use of the theme. The gradual lesson of the controls was much appreciated. Only hang up is slippery controls after jumping.

Commando Kibbles by bakpakin 2015-04-26T04:39:00

Loved loved loved this entry :) So adorable and great use of the theme! I agree this would have worked better with space as the firing, or maybe up instead?

Pillow Fightin'!! by shyupuff 2015-05-01T01:29:00

Loved it~!

The Ties That Bind by mantisda 2015-04-23T05:02:00

Great concept and smooth controls!

Switcheroo by MattV 2015-04-26T04:51:00

Really fun title! I loved the music but the ability to switch off would have been nice :) Your use of the theme was spot on!

Wounded by Words by Traumendes_Madchen 2015-05-04T20:38:00

Great entry :) I love the GUI and music the most. Haven't gotten through all routes yet, but I can already say it's very good. Some grammatical errors/unnatural sentences but, that's to be understood haha

Frazzle Dazzle by hexdie 2015-05-04T20:34:00

Loved it and great idea!

Phage Therapy by uberscientist 2015-04-26T04:12:00

The first game I played after finishing the jam, and I must say it's still one of my favs! Could do with a clear end goal, but everything else was spot on!

Beermageddon by error031 2015-04-26T04:18:00

A simple game and made use of the theme. A lot of the text in the beginning needed history though, and controls should have been listed.

Affectionate Armament by ekkiiiii 2015-05-01T01:13:00

Fun little game ad great use of the theme. Little difficult as a single player though, and the noises started to get a tad annoying.

Affectionate Armament by ekkiiiii 2015-05-01T01:17:00

Wrong comment haha! It was pretty hard to be honest.

Concrete Escape by Davikin92 2015-05-01T01:15:00

Fun little game ad great use of the theme. Little difficult as a single player though, and the noises started to get a tad annoying.

Megane Fever by Park 2015-04-26T05:06:00

Loved it! Super cute and great use of the theme :)

A MineSweepEars Island by Dhim 2015-04-26T04:28:00

I really liked what you were going for, but I was honestly just confused and didn't know how to utilize the "weapon" per say.

LIGHT by MSiddeek 2015-04-23T21:07:00

Loved it all around! Especially the music and light as a weapon :)

My Dear Pencil by Dorgam 2015-04-26T04:22:00

Really strong entry! I loved the music, concept, and use of the theme. My only hang up is that the controls are hard for me to work with my hands.

TypeFighter by Sheepolution 2015-04-26T05:11:00

Great game and theme! I felt like I was playing bookworm on steroids :-D

ScarKrow by Carduus 2015-04-21T17:25:00

Loved the graphics in particular! Couldn't really feel the theme per say, but it was overall great work!
